The beauty is delicate and soft, and he madly criticizes the powerful officials for taking her as th

Jiao Yue didn't know whether she was saying this to Yu Tingwan or to herself.

The Dragon-Slaying Guards were originally Pei Xu's dead soldiers. After Pei Zhi took over them, he changed their name, set stricter rules, and more cruel selection methods.

All the mid-level Dragon Slayer Guards and above had fought against Pei Zhi, and so had Jiao Yue. It was a nightmare. Even now, she couldn't help but be afraid when she saw King Wei.

"Your Majesty, if you are free one day, can you take this slave with you?" Jiao Yue said softly.

She really couldn't imagine where she could go after leaving Yu Tingwan.

"You..." Yu Tingwan hesitated for a moment and said, "Understood?"

"I vaguely guessed it."

Qiu Tao and Jiao Yue showed off earlier, saying that in Qingzhou before, when autumn was approaching, the empress would boil a lot of pear paste, and would also use pears to make candies, which she would keep and eat slowly, giving her half each time.

At that time, Yu Tingwan also said to Qiu Tao: "I will make it for Jiaoyue and Ruyi to try this year, so don't be greedy."

Now that autumn is approaching, Yu Tingwan has never mentioned this matter again. In addition, she has recently switched to teaching "Chu Ci" to Ruyi, which is clearly liked by Xian Fei. The bright moon can faintly smell something like "tuogu".

"Can the palace trap you?" Yu Tingwan asked softly.

"No." Jiao Yue answered without hesitation. Even if she went out through the palace gate in the middle of the night, no one would find her.

"That's good, just follow me then."

"Okay." Jiao Yue's eyes were filled with surprise and joy. She paused for a moment and said, "Does Qiu Tao know about this?"

Qiu Tao and Yu Tingwan grew up together. If they left, they would definitely be together.

"She only knew she was leaving, but she didn't know it was recently." Yu Tingwan sighed, "Don't tell her, otherwise she won't be able to sleep."

She never let Qiu Tao see the box sent by Jiangling Marquis last time, because she was afraid that Qiu Tao would be nervous all day long after seeing it.

After returning to Yilan Palace, both of them pretended that this conversation had never happened and did whatever they should do. The only difference was that Jiaoyue began to sharpen his dagger.

Qiutao was curious on the side, so she replied: "For those who practice martial arts, their weapons are their own arms, and they must take good care of them."

"It's so boring. How about you stop sharpening the dagger and accompany me outside the palace?"

"What are you doing outside the palace?" Jiao Yue's hand has not stopped sharpening the dagger.

"Waiting for the queen to come back." Qiu Tao was a little sad again, "The queen always goes to Feiyu Palace recently and doesn't take me with her. It must be because my handwriting is too ugly and I can't memorize articles, so I will be embarrassed in front of the virtuous concubine."

Before Jiao Yue could say anything to comfort her, Qiu Tao said to herself: "There is no perfect path for anyone, but I am not that material, so I have to practice diligently on how to dress up the empress."

Qiu Tao is best at mixing makeup and powder, and tinkering with various hair buns. When she was in Qingzhou, her favorite thing was getting up early to dress up Yu Tingwan. She would change the way she painted her eyebrows one day and not do the same thing for more than half a month. , it’s a pity that after Yu Tingwan entered the palace, in order to keep a low profile, she didn’t like makeup.

"Okay, okay, you can figure it out for yourself." Jiaoyue said perfunctorily. Seeing that the people around her showed no intention of leaving, she looked up and found Qiu Tao looking at her with burning eyes.

Half an hour later, Jiaoyue frowned and said, "Do you think this looks good?"

"It will definitely look good on my empress's face. Look at her eyebrows that look like a frown but not a frown. They just match her moon-white clothes."

"Forget it, I'd better go outside the palace and wait for the queen to come back." Haoyue secretly wiped off the pink and white as she walked out.

When it got dark, I didn't hear the sound of the sedan chair.

Qiu Tao said with some worry: "There is no banquet in Concubine Xian's palace today. Is there anything going on?"

Jiao Yue glanced at her and said: "With a dozen followers following me, what can happen unless we meet King Wei."

After saying that, she got up and planned to guard the only way back from Feiyu Palace.

"Hey, take me with you." Qiutao panted and followed.

When he was approaching Feiyu Palace, Qiu Tao spotted a young eunuch in Concubine Xian's palace. She called out to him and said with a smile: "Ruan Hui, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

"Qiu Tao? I'm going to prepare a hangover soup. Princess Hua Lan is here today and has been drinking. She also drank a lot after pestering the imperial concubine."

In Feiyu Hall, Yu Tingwan glanced at Pei Shu beside him and felt that he might be in conflict with the Pei family.

Pei Shu often went to the palace since she was a child, and Concubine Xian watched her grow up. She did not need to say hello in advance and could directly enter the Feiyu Palace.

Today, Yu Tingwan was having a chat with Concubine Xian when Pei Shu came in and said in a rhyming voice: "My Lady, I heard that you have some good pear blossoms here, so I took advantage of the few days since I returned to Beijing to come and drink."

Concubine Xian quickly asked someone to bring Li Huabai over and said with a smile, "You don't have any temper when you go to Youzhou."

Pei Shu smiled and saw Yu Tingwan was here. She bowed and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Your beauty is even better than before."

After she finished speaking, she sat down next to Yu Tingwan and said seriously: "I heard that your Majesty has a good drinking capacity. Can you have a few drinks with me?"

After a few heavy drinks, Yu Tingwan realized that he shouldn't admit that he had a good drinking capacity.

The pear blossom white was too strong, and Pei Shu poured it down cup after cup as if she was dying. Concubine Xian couldn't persuade her, and it wasn't until Pei Shu walked up to Concubine Xian with misty eyes that everyone realized that the princess was drunk.

When Concubine Xian saw Pei Shu holding her arm and looking affectionate, her heart softened at first. Then she realized that the child was drunk and ordered the palace servants to make a hangover soup.

"Empress Wang, please take me to meet brother A Heng, okay?" Pei Shu looked at Concubine Xian eagerly, "Big brother won't let me see him, and will send me to Youzhou."

Yu Tingwan felt that she should leave at this moment. When she was about to say goodbye, Pei Shu suddenly called her.

"My dear concubine, you are not allowed to leave. I can still drink. I still have something to say to you."

Concubine Xian was a little helpless and said to Yu Tingwan: "Concubine, it's better to stay and have a bowl of hangover soup first."

Pei Shu is not a rule-abiding person, and she becomes a devil after drinking too much. Anyone who disobeys her will will cause endless trouble.

Pei Shu heard Concubine Xian's words and murmured: "It's better for the Queen. Chen Zhaoyi doesn't want to see me anymore, and brother A Heng doesn't want to see me either."

She was very drunk and spoke incoherently. She didn't know what night it was.

Concubine Xian had no choice but to send Pei Shu back to the princess's palace, but today she carried King Wei on her back and entered the palace alone. She did not bring any entourage, and the palace servants of Feiyu Palace could not leave the palace.

Concubine Xian was worried that Pei Shu would go back like this. After thinking about it, she heard that King Wei was still in Zichen Palace, so she ordered the palace servants to ask Pei Zhi to come and take his sister away.

Pei Shu drank too much, completely forgetting her respect for her elder brother, and said loudly: "He will come when he comes."

About a quarter of an hour later, Pei Zhi arrived. When he entered the palace, he saw Pei Shu staggering from the side of Xian Fei to Yu Tingwan. Her cheeks turned red and she said, "My dear, don't fall for my elder brother's deception. He is always good at lying." of."

"I have met the noble concubine and the virtuous concubine." Pei Zhi looked calm, but he strode to Pei Shu's side and pulled her away.

"Your Highness, the princess also said what she said unintentionally." Yu Tingwan said.

Pei Shu nodded and said with a smile: "The imperial concubine is so kind. She helps me speak. No wonder Xie Wuniang likes you. My eldest brother also——"

The last bit of the peaceful smile on Pei Zhi's face disappeared. Without hesitation, he knocked Pei Shu unconscious with a knife, and apologized: "My dearest concubine, my roommate made a mistake."
